Hi Guys, Currently I have ASUS Maximus Formula (X38 Chipset) and Intel core 2 Duo E6850 (3.0 Ghz @ Stock) and 2 GB RAM Corsair XMS 2 DHX. So, I am thinking of changing my processor with Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 and 4 GB RAM Kingston HyperX 1066 mhz. So If I buy new proccy and RAM so I will save some money on motherboard.
Now I am confused that whether to change only my proccy and RAM or whole motherboard, Proccy and RAM with the core i7 Rig. As we all know that there is merely a 15% - 20% difference in performance between Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 and Intel core i7 920.
If I opt for core i7 Rig so I will have to change my motherboard too to take the X58 motherboard so for buy X58 motherboard, I will have to add near about $250 more from my pocket.
What to do now ?
All ur suggestions are welcome
Thank you
